Special Weekend.
Dec 09th 2011 10:26
Today is a Saturday. It's special for me.
That's because tomorrow is day-off and I have an event.
Actually, it is tomorrow that is special not today.
But I have waited today because work days in this week are the end by today.
Anyway, I'll meet my dear friend tomorrow.
She gave me a motive to study English.
She has been in Canada to study, and will come back temporarily in Japan.
She told me that, and I'll be able to meet her.
I'm really looking forward to the day.
However, my English can't improve yet although I have the intention of studying as hard as I can.
I can't be close to her in English and anything for good.
But I want her to recognize my growing someday.

That's because tomorrow is my day-off and I have an event.
Actually, it is tomorrow that is special, not today.
But I have waited today because work days in this week are the end by today.(I don't understand this sentence. Do you mean something like, "But I consider today special because the work week ends today."?
She gave me the motivation to study English.("A motive" is correct, but "motivation" would be a better word to emphasize your interest in learning. A motive means a reason to do something, but motivation means an interest and excitement to do something.)
She has been in Canada to study, and will come back temporarily to Japan.
I can't be close to her in English skill and anything for good.(Don't quite understand this sentence. Mostly it is the "and anything for good" that confuses me.)
But I want her to recognize my growth someday.(Growing is a verb, but growth is a noun that you can use in this instance.)
In the third correction, the sentence you gave me is almost the same what I want to say.
And the last second sentence, I want to mean that she are superior to me in everything including English skills, so I can't catch up with her forever.(Does it make sense?)
I used "for good" for "indefinitely, forever", is it wrong?
In your sentence you were talking about having skills so the existence of the word "good" made me think you were talking positively about her skills. So here it would be better to use something like "forever".
A good sentence for this would be something like, "Compared to her, I am forever behind in English skill."
Probably I could understand that.
For example, "I would keep using this pen for good."
How about this? Isn't it wrong?
Here's some extra examples.
"I've kept this old shirt for too long. I am throwing it out for good this time."
"I won't be back. I'm moving away for good."
"I've tried to repair this broken sink many times, but I think I finally fixed it for good."
And thank you for many examples!!
They are very helpful.
I'll study about "for good" by using these examples.
Today is Saturday.
It means a lot to me.
That's because tomorrow is my day off and I'm going to a special event.
In that case, tomorrow would be special, not today.
I've waited for today all week and it's finally the weekend.
That means I'll be meeting one of my dear friends tomorrow.
She was the one who gave me the inspiration to study English.
She's been studying in Canada, but will be coming back to Japan temporarily.
When she told me, I got really excited.
I'm really looking forward to seeing her again.
However, my English hasen't improve enough yet, although I have the intention of studying as hard as I can.
There's no way my English could be as good her's.
I hope she think that my Japanese has improved.
English makes me think it difficult over and over again...
Anyway, I hope to have a good time with her, Thanks.
That's because tomorrow is my day off and I have special plans.
However, my English hasn't improved yet, although I have the intend to studying as hard as I can.
I can't be close to her in English skills or anything else, but I want her to recognize my growth someday.Consider this: While my current English skills cannot be compared with hers, I want her to recognize my growth someday.
Have a good weekend.
I can't wait for her to meet.
And have a good weekend, too!
Correction: I can't wait to meet her.
I am sure she can't wait to meet you too!
Thank you.
